u/Halkyos

Returning after taking a few seasons off (last I played was EOE). Brawl is my preferred format, although I am looking towards Standard Brawl because it removes the Alchemy cards and I kind of like that. I get tired of playing the same commanders over and over again, and I imagine other people also get tired of it, so I try to look for commanders that aren't seen as often so I can enjoy a more unique game. I realize this is a moving target since new card releases will make one card more powerful or less powerful than before, and this can cascade into what commanders become favorites, but I want to get a sense of who has been used too much lately so I can avoid them.

I am wanting to try out Standard Brawl instead of Brawl. With the downscaling, I am at a loss on good rules of thumb for how much removal, ramp, hand advantage, etc. to be sure to have. Even knowing an ideal ratio of lands to non-lands. Searching online, even typing in "Standard Brawl", most resources are about regular Brawl or just talking about what Brawl or Standard Brawl are. Has anybody found particular recipes to work well?
